That’s awesome!

Unfortunately I can’t test it myself (or is that fortunately? =P), but I’ll soon add that to the list of stuff people can try. Thanks for the info!

I’ve had the same problem. Here is what i did and apparently it works:
- same as above : enabling USB debugging
- go to setting-program-manage program,
find superuser permissions, choose clear data.

Done…

Unfortunately I am unaware of any other solutions. I’ve been lucky in that this has always fixed it for me!

Try searching the XDA Developers Forum for other solutions. Sorry I can’t help any further.

Good luck!

I turned on USB debugging and am still getting nothing (just black screen with title) when i open Superuser Permissions app. I have the rooted droid. Any other suggestions?

That must be annoying. I feel for you!

Unfortunately turning on USB Debugging seems to be the only way to fix the hanging, and I don’t know any automated or easy way of toggling the setting.

Maybe someone has made a widget that lets you toggle USB Debugging with just a single tap? That would be nice.

If there isn’t one, try using Anycut (available on the Android Market), and making a shortcut to the Development activity.

I’d look into it more, but I’m not in possession of my phone at the moment. Darn repairs.

Good luck!

I need to change Usb debug (on/off) all the time…

Off for use my HTC magic with my audio usb car
On for use the su command…

No more solution?

Thanks
